This is a reminder of our community band rehearsal this Thursday, October 4th at 7:00 pm in the band room at Thomasville High School. This fall has started great and I hope you can make it this week.
Last Thursday we elected the four "at large" members of our board of directors....
The board will hold a meeting soon to finalize the plans for the Christmas concert, plan the spring honor bands and discuss other business.
The Christmas Concert is scheduled for Saturday, December 15th. There has been some discussion about it being in the afternoon, to avoid conflicts with other Christmas events and also on the chance that that day should be very cold the attendance would be better during the day. There is also the possibility to move the concert to December 16th and have an "old fashioned" Sunday afternoon concert (just as they tried to do at Mayberry in an Andy Griffith episode). I would like your input on the best time for you.
After many months of looking for additional percussionists, we have had several join us this fall and it has really made a big difference! We hope to add an additional baritone player soon and hopefully another clarinet, trumpet and maybe French horn. If all our percussionist will stay with us, our greatest need now may be additional trumpet players.
If you missed last weeks rehearsal you missed a great one. We had 29 present which may be our largest attendance other than for rehearsals near in time to a performance.....
Sorry to run on so long today. I look forward to seeing you Thursday!
Chris
